“A top scientist who once worked for the Pentagon and the U.S. space agency was arrested on Monday and charged with attempted spying for Israel, the Department of Justice said.
He is charged with “attempted espionage for knowingly and willfully attempting to communicate, deliver, and transmit classified information relating to the national defence of the United States to an individual that Mr. Nozette believed to be an Israeli intelligence officer.
This was not Mr. Nozelle’s first attempt to sell out his country, Bloomberg News reported.
From November 1998 through January 2008, he worked as a technical consultant for an aerospace company that was owned by the government of Israel.
Once a month, representatives of the company proposed questions to the scientist that he answered in return for payments totaling about US $225,000, according to a criminal complaint. ”

Has anyone noticed that most of the spies they catch work for our Government. Who in the hell hired them in the first place?
Aw! Yes! Those backgound checks really work don’t they.
What the f#@k is Isreal spying on us for. We give them everything they want, and they are supposed to be our greatest ally.
Something tells me we have real problems in our Government, even if they never show up. The debt, wars, economy, and the spies aren’t a hint.
It’s amazing to me still, that the ‘news’ reporters on CNN don’t even pretend that lies don’t pass as acceptable news – nor do they make any effort to get to the real stuff.
oldnslow and I caught this yesterday through sheer happenstance – thought we were both going to die laughing (while clutching our chests) when John Oliver said “goatfuckers”
perfect
hahahahaha! thanks Jason, I’d missed it. hahaha!
“leave it there” ugh! I’m so glad I’m not the only one who is frustrated by these stupid non-news noise dynamics.
Damn funny AND true! Jakebob says “send this one viral, folks!”
